HR Management System

For the past five years, I've been working on HR management system (web application on ASP.NET MVC) with a team of four developers. I built this system from scratch; the platform has custom user role management and is customizable for various languages (Georgian, Russian and English). It manages the whole process from beginning to end—from hiring the employee to termination along with vacation management, employee benefits, 360° leadership assessment, and so on.

Forms.bog.ge (Intranet Site)

I developed a project called Forms.bog.ge (intranet site). The application was meant for bank employees who register different types of client complaints. Here employees fill out requests in Web Forms and all these requests via a REST service are sent asynchronously to different systems.

Technologies: Angular 7, .NET Core 2.2

Candidate Screening

I developed a candidate screening program; I used ASP.NET MVC and an Oracle database for the back end.

When a candidate applies for employment at the bank, their information is used to fill out a form, then the program runs the candidate's information through several systems (the bank’s core system and external REST and WCF services) and is collected and later to be reviewed by a security officer.

For this project, I also developed a custom reporting tool with templates to generate complex (multi-sheet) Excel reports based on view models.

Overdue Loan Notices

I created web service to support a bank's loans department by importing customer data from a core bank system and sending notices to customers with overdue loans.

Online Chat

For this project, I refactored a legacy online chat application which was used to connect bank clients with call center operators. I added various functionalities such as the ability to chat with multiple clients simultaneously, to redirect a chat to another operator, and to answer with predefined responses.

Also, I have added some new reports for administrators and optimized performance. After refactoring, 60% more clients were served per day and chat waiting time decreased from 1 minute to ten seconds.

GSS Environment

I worked on the project "GSS Environment" which is an office management application. It contains several modules including work and management, communication, contacts, and GSS Code (a Georgian law electronic library), finances, and accounting. I used Visual Studio for writing code on C# and Microsoft SQL Server for T-SQL queries.
